APT 30: Mini Main Event 75L GTD – ASHISH MUNOT “OMG_spew” – IN₹ 13.13L (~US$ 16,629)
Last month, highly decorated Indian pro Ashish Munot fell one spot short of his first ever APT title at the brand’s inaugural Hanoi Vietnam series Main Event. Last night, he made up for it by clinching the featured Mini Main Event, outlasting the 913 entry field. The event ran for a heated nine hours with 108 players earning a piece of the pot. Munot walked away with the largest cut amounting to whopping IN₹ 13.13 Lac and an APT Trophy to add to his poker shelf. This was the series largest winner’s payout to date.
The final table only took half an hour with Munot picking up momentum at four handed. Leading up to it, Chandan Arora “darkfish” was the player to catch with a big stack since the start of the table. To help Arora maintain his lead, he delivered a bad beat to Sanish Chhabra “Sanish21” (6th) with 10♦ 10♠ set on the turn against Q♥ Q♠. One bust later, it was Munot’s turn to crack heads. He eliminated Shriram Varma “MasterBet10” to tighten the gap between him and Arora, then quickly grinded to chip leader. Anmol Mehta “anzzzz” joined the shoving spree and successfully dragged in two pots, the second one sending Arora’s stack below 10 BB. Arora the rest of it to Munot who proceeded to finish off Mehta with A♣ Q♣ over A♠ 10♦ on a board 3♣ Q♠ Q♥ J♠ 9♥.
